Question: Which wood is best for speaker cabinet?

What kind of wood do I use to build a speaker box?

To sum it up, MDF is the most popular and generally best material to use to build a subwoofer box. In some niche cases, you may want to use another wood or fiberglass, or some thing else altogether, but if youre looking for the gold standard then medium density fiberboard is what you need.

How thick should wood be for speaker box?

Enclosures should be built with very dense and heavy wood. We recommend MDF (medium density fiberboard) or Medite (high density fiberboard), They are rigid, heavy and not porous like some particle boards. We recommend 3/4 (19mm) MDF although 1/2 (12.5mm) MDF is acceptable for woofers 8 and smaller.

Can you make a speaker box out of plywood?

Plywood. An effective subwoofer box can be made from plywood. It is a material that is lighter than MDF because it is not as dense, but is still sturdy enough to work well. Birch plywood is commonly used and has been found to work well.
